Writing my synopsis just got a whole lot easier!

What's not to love?

I know many may feel it best to leave bedroom doors open at night, especially children's, but it's not. We have firewalls on our computers...think of that bedroom door as a firewall. Also, always have working smoke detectors and a designated family meeting place in case of a fire. Do you have those?

I was called "the walking newspaper" in our house because I knew everything—I didn't tell everything; I just knew it! No one was surprised that I chose a career in journalism and writing.

Oh, so true!

This Thanksgiving, try my favorite chocolate pie. I've used this recipe for decades, and it's still my favorite. Be warned: You'll be sneaking back into the kitchen for another slice! Find the recipe on my website at carolyntillery.com #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #inmydallaskitchen

This situation is known as a gift.

As soon as the temperatures start to drop, I'm in the kitchen making hearty dishes. Although Carne Guisada is a year-round staple in Texas, it's particularly delicious this time of year! #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #inmydallaskitchen Find my recipe at carolyntillery.com

It's always an exciting day when a box from a publisher arrives, filled with books for me to review! #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #amreviewing

Happy National First Responders Day to my forever hero!

I'm an enormous fan of Elizabeth, Ron, Abrahim, and Joyce and their crime-solving adventures solved using their collective lifetimes of experience. Watch out, world; when "senior citizen" time hits, I'm going to be just like this gang! #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #murderbooks

One thing I've loved about my long career in journalism is getting to know interesting folks from all over, like Gary Mulligan, a retired nuclear chemist turned entrepreneur. If you are in New Jersey, stop in his Dickey's Barbecue for some great food and big laughs.

I love Murder by the Book in Houston! They sent me Elizabeth George's new Lynley novel as it arrived in the store. Unfortunately, having pneumonia has really knocked the wind out of my sails. Alas, Lynley and Havers will have to wait. #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #murderbooks

This is what it's really all about folks.

How Katharine Graham Defied A Federal Judge To Publish The Pentagon Papers Graham, who died in 2001, held the title of publisher at The Washington Post from 1969 until 1979. She spoke to Fresh Air in 1997 about her 1971 decision to publish the top-secret documents.

Worth remembering this interview with Kay Graham and how she handled publication of the Pentagon Papers. They had just taken the paper public. And they owned tv stations which faced licensing pressures.

Writers' Retreat Day 4: Writing Intensive. Another productive writing day. We've had such a creative and enjoyable retreat thanks to the generosity and humor of our host, group member Nick Tseffos, and his lovely wife Karen. #carolyntillerydallas #nicktseffos #reedramlow #bruceconord #bonnarspring

Writers' Retreat Day 3: Today was a writing-intensive day. After breakfast, we got after it. Our day ended with a late afternoon boat ride, followed by a small dinner party and another laugh-filled board game challenge. #carolyntillerydallas #nicktseffos #reedramloww #bruceconord #bonnarspring

Writers' Retreat Day 2: Team-building day. We kayaked almost 10 miles, then had a Zoom meeting with our two members who couldn't join us. After dinner, we played games until bedtime. Tomorrow: writing intensive. #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #nicktseffos #reedramlow #bruceconord #bonnarspring
